ゴメンナサイ

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

weird one? readers have been demanding for laurie/jo plus amy's bloody murder ever since it was still being published.

me, i always thought they were too bro/sis-like to get together. plus the amy bashing is a turn-off, and i don't even like amy to start with.

So it looks like we're going to be making this game after all, thanks to everyone who showed interest and offered up some great ideas for helping it to run more smoothly. We thought of an idea to be put into place and wanted to get an idea for how it might be received.

With the goal of minimizing wank and maximizing each player's comfort, which of these options seem like good ideas? Which one do you think would work best?

Original Plan: Player contact info will not be listed on the main site. It will be required for screened applications, so the mods know who's playing who, but it's up to the players whether or not they want to list their Plurk and/or online handles on their character info. So in essence, listing names and contact info is optional after an application is accepted.
Pros: Less chance of being singled out for kink-shaming, encourages private conversations through PMs (which can document proof of harassment or kinkpushing if it happens), less chance of cliques
Cons: People may not like not knowing who a player is, people may assume that those who don't list their contact info are wankers/creepers.
Exception: If a player tells the mod that they straight up do not want to play with the player of a character they had issues with, the mod will then private tell them which other characters they will want to avoid under the condition that the player keep the information private.

Alt Plan A: List contact info as normal.

Alt Plan B: Assign themed handle names so people can determine which characters belong to a player (who still retains semi-anonymous rights) for more scrutiny.

Thoughts? Again, the goal is to minimize wank while allowing players to feel the most comfortable. We thought this would make it easier for players to express their kinks this way without feeling criticized or judged, especially as kinks change from character to character. We don't doubt wank will eventually happen (it's the nature of the beast, especially with sex games), but it's better if it's contained toward the game itself instead of name dropping.

I just experienced a moment identifying with the people who complain that younger generations are taking trigger warnings too far, and I feel dirty for it

it's not trigger warnings. it's spoiler warnings. it's just being a decent person and realizing that not everyone can sit and binge watch an entire season in 13 hours and be able to talk about it before an entire day's gone. if they'd even waited a few days, no one would have said much about it, but it was barely half a day since it dropped. it's just tasteless and rude. has dick all to do with trigger warnings.

I really enjoy playing perverts/sexually charged people. These require some discussions of boundaries of other players, but otherwise, you get to just have fun.

considering i've legitimately seen someone call someone else a homophobe for not being willing to 'try' being gay? this wouldn't surprise me at all.

Plurk css help

(Anonymous) 2016-06-29 02:57 pm (UTC)(link)
probably a bit of a longshot here, but i'm curious if anyone can help me with a spacing problem i'm having on occasion. plurks on my timeline are normally spaced a bit apart, but i've been finding that every once in a while, one of mine will seem almost attached to another plurk. the spacing's too close and it's like they're conjoined with one placed above the other, but touching even when they're closed. i don't know how to do padding for it and i've tried with the one block of css i do know affects my timeline, but it hasn't seemed to do anything. any suggestions or even just pointing me in the right direction would be amazing.

I took an 8 year break and I've been on a game for nearly a year and a half now! It took.a little to feel confident in it again, but give it a shot anon!

Re: RYSLIG

I'm a former player, but I had an OC while I was here. People here don't have the 'Ew, OCs, ew' attitude that's so prevalent in DWRP, so you should fit in well enough if you get in. Be warned that the mods are nitpicky about OC apps, so your chances of being pegged with revisions or rejection are pretty high.

As for the game itself, if you're hoping for an overarching, coherent plot this ain't the game for you. Ryslig's plot fell apart a while back and the mods either won't or can't get it back on track. Mod plots tend to just sputter out and/or are handwaved with the outcome the mods want. Don't expect them to have any impact on things a few months down the line either. Player plots are far and few between but they're more enjoyable than the main plot to participate in.

It's your choice whether or not to get involved in the god faction stuff, but many people don't and again, it has no bearing on anything. The mods have the attention span of a goldfish, and tend to flit off to the next shiny idea with annoying frequency.

My best advice is for you to go in with a plan for your character. Decide what kind of story arc you want them to follow while in Ryslig. For example, are they going to lament the loss of their humanity, or do you want them to embrace being a monster? Is one going to follow the other? Would they actually devote themselves to a god? Things like that.

tl;dr OCs are welcome here, but the mod plot is a shitshow. You'll be far better served to make your own fun here.

I've also been called homophobic because I said I didn't like the chemistry of the popular slash ship.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-29 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
i'm really starting to hate the word homophobic. 'not gay' =/= homophobic. not being into gay things =/= homophobic. not wanting to watch gay things =/= homophobic. you don't have to 'give gay a chance' and not wanting to doesn't make you a fucking homophobe. i'm bi and i don't always want the gay to happen. putting on gay porn and having someone who's straight get up and leave or not watch it or ask to change the channel doesn't make them a homophobe. and not shipping something gay doesn't make someone homophobic either. just like het ships that are crammed together because they're both pretty or fucked up, some gay ships are awkward and hamhanded. not liking them doesn't make someone homophobic. not unless they're using derogatory slurs and hating on them because of the gay. that's what homophobia is, and even then, i dislike the term because no one's phobic of it. they're just bigoted or prejudiced. no one's fucking latinaphobic. they're racist. as a gay person, i despise the fact that one term is used to cover so much bullshit, and most of it's wrong.

sorry, that got tldr, but it really bugs me.
